Prabhas led Adipurush has taken an earth-shattering start at the Indian box office. While it was always on the cards that the film would be the biggest opener of 2023, no one knew that it would literally crush the numbers of Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan. Let’s see how much the biggie earned on its day 1!
Helmed by Om Raut, the magnum opus also stars Kriti Sanon, Saif Ali Khan, Sunny Singh and Devdatta Nage in key roles. So far, reactions have been mixed but that didn’t stop the film from posting smashing numbers and becoming the 4th biggest opener.
Driven by solid numbers in the Hindi and the Telugu versions, Adipurush earned a monstrous 89 crores* on day 1 at the Indian box office (including all languages). That’s humongous and marked the 4th biggest opening in India, surpassing Saaho‘s 88 crores.
